Lin Bai: "..."
Iwanaga Kotoko: "..."
Chapter 185 The Conflict Between Fulfilled Wishes and Their Costs
"..."
Listening to Rikka Sakuragawa's account, Lin Bai and Kotoko Iwanaga exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of awe.
He slaughtered his entire clan within three years.
I have to say he's got some ruthless traits.
After a brief silence, Rikka Sakuragawa calmly continued:
"After killing everyone in my clan except myself, I began to search for a way to kill myself."
"I have been to many places."
"For example, in Kyoto, Kumamoto, and Tokyo, we encountered supernatural beings such as youmu and evil spirits."
"They can't kill me."
"Therefore, I think that if there is anything in the world that can kill oneself, perhaps only a god."
"I began to search for the gods."
"I went to all sorts of shrines, big and small, but the gods I found were just monsters that had gained human worship."
"They can't kill me either."
"It won't fulfill my wish either."
"The toxins in my body can even make them uncomfortable and cause them some harm."
"So I stopped searching for gods."
"My search for the gods was not fruitless; I stumbled upon this broken piece of crystal."
"Also obtained was a fragmented spell formula, which is said to be able to create a god that one can control."
By collecting human beliefs.
"Steel Girl Nanase is an experimental subject created by Ri06 using this incomplete technique and the Youmu Stone."
"Preparing to create a god."
After listening to Rikka Sakuragawa's account, Kotoko Iwanaga's eyes flickered slightly as she asked:
"You slaughtered all your people, including the children?"
"Child……"
Rikka Sakuragawa looked at Kotoko Iwanaga and said calmly, "Everyone else died because of the experiments, except for me."
A hint of sadness flashed in her eyes.
Because some of her playmates were among the dead children.
"..."
Kotoko Iwanaga was taken aback by what she heard.
It seems that there are not many normal people in Rikka Sakuragawa's family.
Some of them can't even be considered human.
Including Rikka Sakuragawa.
After all, he could kill himself again and again without batting an eye, and he could also wipe out every single one of his own people.
Can this be considered a normal person?
However, considering her past experiences, it's understandable that she might be acting abnormally.
The only one to blame is her people, who have become obsessed with the pursuit of immortality and are no different from those vicious demons.
They probably see the family's children as nothing more than consumables.
Once this batch is finished, we just need to wait for the next batch of consumables to be produced.
If that's the case, then Rikka Sakuragawa killing them all would actually be considered a good thing.
After a moment of silence, Kotoko Iwanaga asked thoughtfully:
"So your purpose in creating a god was to kill yourself?"
"That's right..."
Sakuragawa Rikka's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded to Iwanaga Kotoko.
"This answer is not quite accurate."
At this moment, Lin Bai put down his black tea, smiled slightly, and said:
"Your main purpose in creating a god is to become a normal person. Only if you can't do that will you choose to kill yourself."
"Or rather, either of these two purposes is acceptable."
"!!!"
Sakuragawa Rikka's pupils trembled slightly, and her eyes widened a little.
They locked eyes.
After a moment of silence, she smiled slightly and said:
"I now basically believe that you are a true god."
Kotoko Iwanaga blinked at this.
It seems that what Lin Bai said is true.
Sakuragawa Rikka continued:
"My story is finished. If you are truly a god, can you grant my wish?"
As he spoke, anticipation appeared in his eyes.
She wanted to create a god to fulfill her wish.
If Lin Bai is truly a god, and the real deity is right before her eyes, there's no need for her to go to such lengths and make a fuss.
Lin Bai smiled and looked at Sakura Rikka: "When you make a wish to the gods, you need to fulfill your vow after it is granted."
Do you believe you currently possess the ability to fulfill a vow?
"To fulfill a vow..."
Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, Sakura Rikka fell silent.
His eyes flickered slightly.
Kotoko Iwanaga looked at Lin Bai.
His brows furrowed slightly, as if deep in thought.
She seemed to have guessed something.
After a moment of silence, Rikka Sakuragawa asked, "What do I need to give in order to have my wish granted?"
Lin Bai smiled and said, "The only thing of value to me about what you have right now is yourself."
"I?!"
Sakuragawa Rikka was taken aback by what she heard.
Kotoko Iwanaga glanced at Lin Bai, and sure enough, it was just as she had thought.
That womanizing bastard.
Just as Kasumigaoka Utaha said, she is a goddess of the harem.
Lin Bai smiled and continued:
"If you want to fulfill your wish, you must give up everything and become a priestess who serves me."
"A contradiction has clearly arisen."
"If you choose to become an ordinary human, you will become my priestess and will also be no longer considered an ordinary human."
“If you choose death, you will become my priestess, and I will not stand idly by while my priestess dies.”
"So you can't die."
"do you think so?"
After speaking, Lin Bai picked up the black tea in front of him and took a sip.
"..."
Sakura Rikka was slightly stunned as she listened to Lin Bai's story.
His eyes flickered, and his expression gradually became complicated.
Lin Bai was clearly right.
If she prays to Lin Bai, her wish will conflict with the price she will pay.
She suddenly thought of something:
"If I can successfully create a god, can my wish be granted?"
Lin Bai: "Show me the formula for creating a god."
Sakuragawa Rikka hesitated upon hearing this.
Finally, he told Lin Bai about the formula for creating a god, and after listening, Lin Bai used his ability to trace back to the source.
They quickly understood the cause and effect.
It turns out that this method of creating gods originated from the method used by Onmyoji to create shikigami, and was modified by others.
By combining divine crystals with the power of human faith, it is indeed possible to artificially create a divine life form.
That's right, it's a divine life form.
He is not a true god, but can be considered a demigod.
